  2. Re:Phrack Corporate Library always DRM-free. on Microsoft Stops Selling eBooks, Will Refund Customers For Previous Purchases (theverge.com) · · Score: 1
    For the record, this isn't Phrack Magazine Issue #70. This is the corporate library, which is an archive Phrack maintains for its writing staff. Phrack (if you read issue #1) has always been a tripartite magazine covering Hacking, Phreaking and Anarchy. Unlike, say, 2600, Phrack is not solely a hacker magazine. Hence, we maintain an Anarchy archive, which includes, among other sections, a Conspiracy and Occult section. If you want a pure "hacking" torrent there are lots of them out there, but none of them are as comprehensive as this one.

    Feel free to break this library down into as many individual torrents as you want, guy. The point is that 100% of these resources (mainly books) are DRM-free ebooks that won't expire and will display on any platform with a reader.

    Because the file list is literally too long to make a torrent from it. It exceeds the limits of the tech.

    PHRACK is pleased to announce our Corporate Library 2019 torrent. It's been two years since we first released this resource and the library has grown considerably (through hook and crook) since then. While the initial library containing everything from 1985 to 2017 was roughly 13GB uncompressed, the compressed version of the new library (1985-2019) weighs in at 78.4GB (under 100GB decompressed.)

    I say "compressed" because the library is now too large to create a torrent file from its unpacked directory and file structure. For that reason, this edition of the library is being released as a compressed archive (regular .rar format, not a renamed .ace file ;P) What's new?

    @ Many more hacking and programming e-books in most categories.

    @ Tons of new .MIL instruction manuals from the USA D0D, and added CANADA ARMED FORCES manuals for the first time as well.

    @ O'Reilly cookbooks for most popular platforms.

    @ Charles Preston Black History Month Archive. Charles had to take this important archive off Google Drive in February because of DRM bullshit. We replicate it here for posterity. It’s in the /anarchy/survival section.

    @ That insane 2000-page Q-anon PDF, and a PDF of the Captain Crunch autobiography.

    @ Complete DEFCON and Black Hat conference rips: every year, every presentation PDF, all the code, and audio from almost every presentation, all in one place for easy search or AI training. Also CCC magazine in German.

    @ The Magnitsky Act: Behind the Scenes (2016.) This German film has been banned in the west and is desperately important watching for anyone who wants to understand the current state of the world and why we are in a new, artificial cold war.

    @ An entirely new Russian section, with programming and hacking books in Russian, as well as many and various documents relating to Russian hacking and meme warfare.

    @ LinkedIn ICE archives: Scraped list of all ICE profiles from LinkedIn, for future war crimes prosecution.

    @ The Beto O'Rourk cDc .txt archive: Everything Psychedelic Warlord published via cDc.

    @ NZ shooter video, manifesto, social media scrapes and related content. This material is all in the /occult/kek section, in an additional .rar shell so nobody access it by accident. It's also prefaced by the excellent four-part series "The Kek Wars," ( https://www.ecosophia.net/the-... ) which provides important historical context for any future researcher using our archive to study government occlusion of information in the Trump era.

  15. Re:Mouse overuse on 'I Stopped Using a Computer Mouse For a Week and It Was Amazing' (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    Fascinating, thanks for expounding. I once worked for a call center booking conference attendees. The post-call note taking was done in a horrible software with crap interface and lots of task-switching, as you mention, back and forth between keyboard and mouse, through menus and radio buttons. It was a beast, and took a lot of time to encode a new record even though there was very little variation in records. The input process was just overly cumbersome. So I brought in my Microsoft Strategic Commander - an old USB gaming product they once made, which had 6 programmable buttons, 3 "alt" states for the buttons, and 2 programmable axis. It could be loaded with macros consisting of mouse, keyboard, or both. I spent about an hour training it, and then used it to complete call records AS I WAS ON THE CALL. Totally revolutionary. I got 5 times as many calls done in the rest of my day as anyone was getting done on a regular day. So they asked me to meet with their IT guy, and I explained to him how it worked why it was so much faster. Showed him how he could buy a bunch of macro pads and get everyone performing on my level. The next day they fired me for "trying to avoid work." They never improved their system.

  19. I've spent most of my professional life in Venture Capital, specifically in writing intelligence reports about individual venture capitalists, and in writing pitch decks for $500k-$5m pre-series-A funding rounds for startups. Doing this work for almost 30 years, I've learned some rules about what to invest in, and what not to invest in. One thing that's become pretty clear is this: Do not invest in companies that are named after a movie that came out when the Founder/CEO was -9 years old, especially if Disney actually owns the TM on the company name.
